Our group consists of Megan Lawrenson (left) and Helen Jones (right), and we have chosen for our A2 Media Studies Coursework to produce a music video for the existing artist Radiohead.
Radiohead are an English rock band from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, formed in 1985. The band consists of Thom Yorke (vocals, guitars, keyboards), Jonny Greenwood (guitars, keyboards, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitars, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass, synthesisers) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion).
Radiohead have sold more than 30 million albums worldwide, and the band's work has been placed highly in both listener polls and critics' lists. In 2005, Radiohead were ranked number 73 in Rolling Stone's list of "The Greatest Artists of All Time", while Ed O'Brien and Jonny Greenwood were both included in Rolling Stone's list of greatest guitarists, and Thom Yorke in their list of greatest singers. While the band's earlier albums were most influential on British rock and pop music, musicians in a wide variety of genres have been influenced by their later work.
Radiohead are on of our favourite bands, and therefore we have an existing interest with them and find that both their lyrics and videos are inspiring, and we would thoroughly enjoy producing a video of our own for one of their songs. As they have eight records to date, it takes careful consideration to decide on just one song!
